Little Henry one day got a present of two white rabbits.  有一天，小亨利获得了两只白兔子礼物。

　　One was a big rabbit, and the other was a little one. 一只大，一只小。

　　They were put into a little house made of wood.  他们被放在了木头做的小屋里。

　　Do you know what a rabbit-house is called? It is called a hutch. 你知道兔屋叫什么么？叫做兔笼

　　One day the door of the hutch had been left open, and the rabbits got out. 有一天，兔笼子被打开了，兔子跑了出来

　　They both ran about the garden, seeking for something to eat. 他们在花园里跑，找吃的

　　A big basket filled with fine fresh turnips and carrots stood a little way off. 装有新鲜红萝卜和胡萝卜的篮子就在不远处

　　The rabbits soon found their way to it, and began to eat off all the green leaves. 很快，兔子知道怎么过去了，吃掉了所有绿叶

　　There they are in the picture! Do you see them?  就在这个图里!你看到了么？

　　The big rabbit sits on his hind feet, and reaches to the top of the basket. 大白兔坐在他的后脚上，够到了篮子的上部

　　See! he has pulled a turnip down.  看!他拉出一个红萝卜。

　　It has fallen on the ground, and the little rabbit runs to it and begins to eat too. 红萝卜掉到地上，小白兔跑了过去也开始吃

　　It is a good thing that the big rabbit pulled this turnip down, for the little one could not have reached to the top of the basket. 大白兔拉出红萝卜是件好事，因为小白兔够不到篮子的上部

　　In this way the big one helped the little one.  大白兔以这个方式帮助了小白兔。

　　This is just what boys and girls should do at their meals. 这是男孩跟女孩在吃饭时候应该做到的。

　　They should help the little ones first. 他们应该帮助小一点的先吃。

　　That is a good lesson to learn from Henry's white rabbits. Is it not? 从亨利的白兔子上，我们上了很好的一课，不是么？
